The 24 Best Dispensaries to Visit With Your Mom

Saying a dispensary is a place you could take your mom to is a huge compliment. Its connotations are cleanliness, a welcoming atmosphere, helpful and personable budtenders, a product selection that caters to all types of consumers, and an overarching atmosphere of maturity.

While not all moms are new to cannabis, many are still new to dispensaries, and if you’re hoping to share the new face of cannabis culture with your mom through a visit to a rec shop, you’re probably looking for somewhere that’s not draped in tie-dye tapestries. With that in mind, the following are our picks for dispensaries your mother will love.

California

If we were moms in Beverly Hills, we’d shop at The Green Easy. A white-on-silver color scheme, gorgeous glass display cases, sparkling chandeliers and fresh flowers in the entryway quash notions that cannabis is still a counterculture.

Visitors to Caliva can’t help but relax and enjoy themselves—the award-winning dispensary, decked out with reclaimed wood, local art, and a living wall, delivers products of the highest quality; they even have an in-house testing lab onsite.

British Columbia

This bright and lively location features a plethora of products that you’ll have fun browsing with your mom, and the meditative lounge area that accompanies the store offers comfy couches, coffee, smoothies, music, and more—hang out there as long as you like.

Muted neutral tones set the stage at this upscale location in Victoria. With glitzy display cases and an easy-to-navigate menu posted behind the counter, you’ll feel more like you’re ordering a split-shot latte than a gram of Super Lemon Haze.

Colorado

The Lightshade brand name is among the most well-respected in Colorado. While all six of its current locations are fantastic, we especially love the one on 6th Avenue for its central location and impeccable service.

Illinois

Chicago-area dispensaries sometimes seem to be in a class all their own—million-dollar buildouts characterize the city’s storefronts, and Seven Point is no exception. With a front door reminiscent of an upscale apartment building and a modern apothecary-esque vibe inside, it’s no wonder visitors of all kinds love coming here.

Serra’s design scheme is nothing short of stunning, and the store’s Southeast location is no exception. The products here are equally classy—if your mom loves to shop upscale accessories, this is where to take her.

High Grade Organics is a quintessential lifestyle store, with a thoughtfully curated product selection thoughtfully displayed inside a cute butter-yellow building. The focus here is on cannabis’s ability to stimulate creativity, so if your mom loves to write or paint, she’ll adore this shop.

Massachusetts

Products are beautifully displayed here, and frosted glass partitions between registers let visitors receive budtender recommendations with a degree of privacy. It doesn’t hurt that the brick building this dispensary inhabits is steeped in New England charm, right down to the garden gate-style entrance.

Arizona

Arizona Natural Selections has a uniquely feminine feel that’s perfect for putting apprehensive moms at ease. High ceilings, bright lighting, colorful wall accents, a butterfly motif, and an ultra-clean look and feel make this place a must-visit. For those outside of Scottsdale, there’s also a location in Peoria.

The Holistic Center recalls a spa, with an earthy color palette and partitioned desks for private consultations. Keep with the spa theme and treat your mom to an infused balm or bath soak while you’re there.

This clean and clutter-free location feels like a pharmacy, which moms picking up medical cannabis will appreciate. Bright lighting, a white-and-green color scheme, and no-nonsense displays let customers think critically about their product selection without being overwhelmed.

Nevada

Oasis in Las Vegas is oh-so-zen: spring-green walls, tile-accented displays, a waterfall, big leafy plants, skylights to let in plenty of natural daylight, and a farmer’s market hosted on weekends are there to make anyone feel welcome.

New Mexico

This pretty corner store is planted with flowers out front and just as cheerful inside. Big windows shed light on the main counter, behind which friendly budtenders await, always willing to spend as long as needed to ensure visitors leave with the perfect products for their needs.
